How is this different than http://duplicity.nongnu.org/ ??

There is a section comparing Duplicacy with others: https://github.com/gilbertchen/duplicacy-beta#comparison-wit...

BTW, why does your comparison table says "Full Snapshot: No" for duplicity? One can definitely use `duplicity full` to explicitly ask for a full backup.

By "full snapshot" I meant an incremental backup that still appears to be a full one. A full backup in duplicity is not an incremental backup so it is not qualified as a full "snapshot".

Well, since it isn't open source - how does it compare with crashplan (another closed source, data deduplicating, free for personal use, cross platform backup solution...)

Crashplan doesn't support cloud storages other than their own. Neither does it support cross-client deduplication (https://www.facebook.com/CrashPlan/posts/10151056594185124).
